**Naked Yoga for Men\*** with ***Merdan Akbayir*** **[Book a Ticket](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/naked-yoga/w10-2026)** **Member: 10 €** **Regular: 25 €** In this nude yoga class we will explore our own fragility and vulnerability, free from disguise and in a safe environment. What do I feel like when I'm not wearing clothing? How long does it take for me to get used to being the way nature had made me? Naked yoga dates back to a few thousand years ago. It was a spiritual tradition where nothing, not even a loincloth should be between you and your divine nature - a form of ultimate renunciation of worldly matters. There will be no particular focus on eroticism or sexuality. All parts and aspects of our bodies are equally acknowledged as being part of our lives. **General Information** **Language**: This event will be in English. **Cost**: This event is also available at a reduced member price – but not part of the two-free-monthly-events benefit. **Material**: Please bring a towel to cover the yoga mat, yoga block, or cushion. 🔵 **[Nackt-Yoga für Männer*](https://wearevillage.org/shop/naked-yoga/w10-2026/)** mit ***Merdan Akbayir*** In dieser Nackt-Yogastunde werden wir unsere eigene Zerbrechlichkeit und Verletzlichkeit erforschen, frei von Bekleidung und in einer sicheren Umgebung. Wie fühle ich mich, wenn ich keine Kleidung trage? Wie lange dauert es, bis ich mich daran gewöhnt habe, so zu sein, wie die Natur mich geschaffen hat? Nacktes Yoga geht auf eine Tradition zurück, die einige tausend Jahre alt ist und bei der nichts, nicht einmal ein Lendenschurz, zwischen dir und deiner göttlichen Natur stehen sollte - eine Form der ultimativen Entsagung von weltlichen Dingen. Erotik und Sexualität stehen dabei nicht im Vordergrund. Alle Teile und Aspekte unseres Körpers werden gleichermaßen als Teil unseres Lebens betrachtet. **Hinweise** **Sprache**: Dieses Event wird auf Englisch sein. **Kosten**: Dieses Event ist auch zu einem ermäßigten Mitgliederpreis erhältlich – aber kein Bestandteil der zwei kostenlosen monatlichen Mitgliederveranstaltungen. **Material**: Bitte bring ein Handtuch mit, um die Yogamatte, den Yogablock oder das Kissen abzudecken.

Get ready to immerse yourself in the enchanting world of mantras with Sri & Band, where music and spirituality meet in perfect harmony. This Mantra session uses the power of supportive words to redesign the architecture of your mind, let go of limiting beliefs about yourself, and become aligned with your heart.

With each mantra as your anchor, you’ll plant new seeds in the garden of your mind, take agency of your internal world, and feel the immediate enlivening effects. You dont need previous experience in Singing/Chanting. You can listen to Sri´s music here https://shorturl.at/laIwU

Women's Yoga is a gentle, nourishing practice designed to support the health of the female body.

The movements and postures are carefully chosen to support the female organs, pelvic floor, hips, and lower body, helping to create balance, strength, and ease. This practice is intuitive and permission-based. You're invited to move at your own rhythm, in tune with your cycle and how you feel on the day.

**A 3-part embodied dance journey for women** Part 1: 11.01.2026 Part 2: 08.03.2026 Part 3: 12.04.2026 **WORKSHOP 2 – SPINE (Spine Fluidity – Moving with Life)** Donation based \| Only for women \| 08\.03\.2026 \| 14:30 – 17:00 \| MahaYoga Zentrum Building on the essence of **Devadasi – The Sacred Art of Temple Dance**, this series invites you into a deeper, guided exploration of your feminine body. Over three workshops, we journey through **hips, spine, and heart** – key gateways of feminine energy, sensuality, emotional flow, and presence. Each session stands on its own and together they form a coherent path of embodiment, soft activation, and inner awakening. This series is for women who long to: * feel more alive and at home in their bodies * reconnect with sensuality and softness * move beyond the mind and into felt experience * explore feminine energy in a grounded, respectful way * time to meet and share in a circle of women This is a **safe, welcoming space** for all women – all ages, all body types. Wear comfortable clothes that allow you to move freely and feel beautiful. Come as you are, leave feeling **soft, alive, and deeply connected** to your feminine essence. **About Workshop 2** The spine is the central axis of the body – a living pathway for movement, expression, and inner vitality. In this special **International Women’s Day** workshop, we explore fluid, wave-like movements that awaken flexibility, vitality, and softness along the spine. Through slow, continuous sequences inspired by natural rhythms, we gently mobilize the back, shoulders, and entire body. The movements are circular, serpentine, and grounded – encouraging the spine to move freely and the body to reconnect with its natural flow. This session supports you in: * releasing stiffness and control * improving mobility and coordination in a gentle way * reconnecting with sensual, natural movement You are invited to move at your own pace, listening to your body and allowing sensation to guide you. There is no choreography to perform and nothing to get right – only an exploration of how your body wants to move when given time and space. The workshop concludes with a **Full Yogic Relaxation**, allowing the nervous system to settle and the experience to integrate deeply. This is an invitation to move with life rather than against it – softly, fluidly, and with awareness. **Address** Deutsche Akademie für traditionelles Yoga e. V. MahaYoga Zentrum Brunnenstr. 147 10115 Berlin (Directly at underground station U Bernauer Str. U8 [elevator exit])

Come back home to your body and your sensuality, stepping into delicious self-expression. No performance, just dancing for your own pleasure. Explore, embody and express your sensuality from a place of self-love and discover what you need to drop in more fully. It's not about looking a certain way or moving a certain way- it's about you feeling comfortable in your skin and celebrating your aliveness, your beauty, your radiance - and allowing yourself to be witnessed as this alive, beautiful, radiant being As women we often feel unsafe in our sensual and sexual expression. Afraid that it might be seen as an invitation or that it will be used against us. The truth is that when a woman is connected to these parts of herself, she is immensely powerful. When you think of a lap dance, you might think of a strip club where men seem to have the power and women are dancing for their pleasure. **This workshop aims to redefine the dynamics of a lap dance** where the dancer dances for his or her own pleasure while the receiver holds space for their process. Together we explore the qualities that support or diminish your sensual expression. The goal is not to seduce the receiver - though whenever you are fully dropped in, this becomes inevitable. **This is a Tantra inspired event.** The dynamics of a lap dance offer a perfect representation of the eternal love story between Shiva (divine masculine) and Shakti (the divine feminine). In this workshop we will play with masculine and feminine energy - exploring their qualities and how they interact and fuel one another. You’ll be invited to embody both. This is not a dance class where you learn steps. You are always invited to follow your own flow, exploring your unique expression. **Become a more fully and expressed version of yourself and discover yourself through the art of lap dance.** **What to expect** * Introduction & sharing * Warm up exercises to connect with the group, to land in your body and to gradually prepare you for the lapdance * Playful boundary exercise * Exploration of feminine and masculine qualities * Lap dance experience * Reflection on what supports and diminishes your sensual expression **Program (subjective to change)** 15.00 - 16.00 Introduction & sharing 16.00 - 16.30 warm up & connection 16.30 - 17.00 embodiment practice 17.00 - 17.15 playful boundary setting practice 17.15 - 17.30 short break 17.30 - 18.15 exploring masculine and feminine qualities 18.15 - 18.45 lap dance practice 18.45 - 19.00 closing circle **What to bring** * Wear anything that you feel comfortable, sensual and confident in; maybe something that feels nice on your skin, something that allows you ro move easily, or- it can also be something sexy. If you are unsure what to wear, you can simply bring the outfit you are unsure of and slip into it whenever it feels right. * Water bottle * Journal (optional) **Testimonials** *I highly recommend going to Sophie’s offering Conscious Lap Dance. It was almost like a beautiful women’s circle plus expressing and connecting to ourselves and other women through the art of dance. I learned so much about space holding and taking space in the most beautiful mutual and safe way. I got to experience how dancing staying connected with myself can feel. Very empowering :)* **\- Maria L** *Sophie facilitates her events with passion, presence and so much integrity. I felt really seen and safe in the lap dance event and did connect with my inner goddess and playful spirit. Also my fears in the beginning were welcome and I could integrate some wounded parts within me. Every exercise is really an invitation to get to know yourself and your pleasure better while being able to connect in small steps with other participants.* **\- Sophia Lara** **Tickets** 45€ per person [purchase your ticket here](https://www.sophieheldens.com/tickets?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=lapdance) [ ](https://www.sophieheldens.com/tickets) [ ](https://www.sophieheldens.com/tickets)**Location:** Praxis Köpi Köpenicker Straße 175 **Please take note:** This event takes place at a beautiful studio located on the 5th floor.
